Yeah, I noticed that it happens from time to time and it's hard to view but finally in the end (takes a couple of days) there'll go back to their natural shape & size. Peace and great dessert photos!

Before you post a pic, go to a site like this one:

www.imageshack.us

You can resize your picture there. It will give you a drop down box, and you can select what size. Generally 320 x 240 is a good one to use on message boards. You can also resize pictures to use in your avatar. The site will host your picture and generate a code which you can use to post on the board. The code that says 'Direct link to image' is the one that works on this board. Then you post the code on the board using the yellow picture icon underneath the B.

Hope that helps!

Ahhh, you change your avatar...-oh, well I like this one alot too! I was just teasing you about Christopher Walkins that's all but I must admit he/Mr. Walkins fightens me: check out that movie "Sleepy Hollow" how terrifying! I'll check out your sound clippings next time, Shaggz1972 I bet there quite fantastic. Peace!
